My 9 year old boxer is dragging her left back toe. Sometimes she has a hard time getting up. She still runs when she’s outside. I bought non slip boots but they turn after she’s had them on a few minutes. My vet has her on 2.5 cc. of Meticam a day an
Thanks for using Boop by Petco. If she is slipping on floors, ToeGrips are sometimes more helpful than booties. https://toegrips.com/ If it is pain or weakness sometimes acupuncture can make a world of difference for senior dogs. Please be sure that you find a veterinarian that does acupuncture in conjunction with her current medications. If it has not been done X-rays to try to localized the cause of her problem can sometimes help determine the best therapy. (Ie back or hips or knees or all?) Best of luck I hope this helps.

I just adopted Tchai and noticed that her paws are very rough and yellowing. What can I do to help?
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! This may be due to the paw pads being too dry. You can use something to moisturize them a bit. I like a product called Musher's secret but there are plenty others in the market. If this does not improve despite that, I would recommend you have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Here below is a link where you can find the product for your convenience. Best of luck! https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/dog/dog-health-and-wellness/dog-paw-balms-and-creams/mushers-secret-paw-protection-balm

Hi there, I have a 3 year old male Cockapoo. He always been a sneezing dog, but recently I’ve noticed he’s been sneezing more than normal. He also is always sucking/chewing on his paws. I had taken him into the vet for his paw sucking, but they sa
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! This is possibly due to allergies. A secondary infection is likely and also needs to be addressed. There are many things that can cause allergies though in most cases they can be broken down into 3 big categories: flea, food and environmental allergies. Allergies are usually worked up in a stepwise fashion starting with flea allergies as this is the easiest and cheapest to take care of. If not on a flea preventative, then it would be a good idea to get started on one. If already on one then it would be a good idea to change to something else (there are many new products out in the market). If not improved in 1-3 months then it is time to move on and check for food allergies by switching to a novel diet (new protein and new carbohydrate). If that does not seem to be the issue then you are left out having to check for environmental allergies which require blood and/or skin tests. Allergies can be very frustrating to deal with at first but so rewardi

What would be the best wet dog food for her weighing 3.3 lbs. 4 years and has Periodontal desease? And can I purchase at Petco or Petsmart? Thank you
As far as dog food goes, I tend to recommend Hill's Science Diet or the higher end Purina products. If you are looking to go a more natural route you would want to try something like Earthborn or Acana. Periodontal disease can be delayed with regular teeth brushing if Ratchett will allow it. You should be able to purchase most of what I mentioned at one of those stores. Hope this makes sense.
